1. FIFA 14 by EA Sports

Check out the video above to see what this game looks like on mobile.

As seen being played by Landon Donovan in the image at the very top of this article, FIFA 14 is a compelling game for soccer (er, “football”) fans everywhere. The game includes officially licensed 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil national teams, kits, and even the Adidas Brazuca ball. If you want a video game that fully captures the spirit of the World Cup, this is it.

Features 33 leagues, over 600 licensed teams, and more than 16,000 players

Listen to commentaries in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish

Some users have lost their squads after updating

Some users have experienced EXP bugs

Doesn’t sync with console version of the game

Some features/modes feature IAP

2. Yo.

Learn more about the Yo. app in the video above.

We’ve written about Yo previously. For the initiated, Yo. is an app that lets you send a push notification to your friends that simply reads, “Yo.” That’s it. Love it or hate it, this simple app is one of the biggest apps to launch in June.

Share it.

3. Level Money

Check out a handy video tutorial for Level Money in the clip above.

Update on June 20, this financial app for Android devices aims to make balancing your budget as easy as possible. The latest update addressed a ton of annoying bugs that were negatively impacting the user experience of this app.

In Level Money, you simply link your banking accounts to the app. From there, the app takes care of the hassle of budgeting, telling you how much of your total income you have left to spend. If you’re hopeless with money, or just juggling too many accounts to keep track of, this app has got your back.

Lacks common finance app features, such as the ability to auto-scan receipts or weekly/biweekly payments (as opposed to just monthly)

Some users report an issue with one account can’t be resolved unless you delete all accounts and start from scratch

4. Sicher

Learn more about this secure, cross-platform app in the video above.

Sicher is a secure messaging app that will appeal to people who value privacy. In addition to encrypting your messages, this German-made communications app can also encrypt files and documents. The developers state that Sicher is great for privacy fans, adding that the devs”don’t send crash logs, don’t track usage statistics, don’t use any advertising engines, [and] don’t integrate social network SDKs.”

5. IFTTT

Check out the CNET video above to learn all about the IFTTT Android app.

IFTTT is an app for automating your life. Using basic “If this, then that” rules, you can program your phone to automatically complete certain tasks. You can use it to set conditions in your home based on time or location (assuming you have some cool connected devices).

Recent updates to IFTTT’s functionality include a Fitbit channel. Some of the most interesting “recipes” you can set up with IFTTT include automated Fitbit tracking in Google Sheets, getting a text when you get an email marked “urgent,” or automatically sending a SMS to someone after you miss their phone call.
